The same men who won the great victory and brought about the majority sign-up of this state's tobacco farmers into their present solid marketing association will carry on this final drive, which is the last call for tobacco growers who wish to choose i between the old system of speculative sales and the kind of marketing which has. brought success and better prices in a single year to organized growers in Canada, Virginia and Kentucky. The quota and standing of this state's tobacco growing counties was published in last week's papers and South Carolina growers are expecting to set a fast jvice in winning new members as they lead otV the sign-up campaign for three states.
